So Close

Well I am only 5 days away from my due date. I don't really feel any different other than some hip pain and more abdominal and vaginal pressure. I have Braxton hicks contractions every so often but certainly not the real thing. More of a tightening in my stomach or a feeling of a cramp. I am still working out, which I think shocks people at the gym. They have been making some funny comments like why am I still here, my baby is going to come out with muscles and my favorite is "you will probably workout, go home and have an easy delivery and then ask if theres a gym in the hospital so you can go work out right after delivery:) Either way I truly believe that working out and eating healthy has been the biggest reason for such a great pregnancy. I feel good, have had pretty low weight gain and overall haven't felt pregnancy has stopped me from doing and living my life as normal. Brett has been saying how lucky he is. Life hasn't skipped a beat since I got pregnant and he keeps telling me how awesome I am. He sure has made me feel pretty good. My friend, Kimi, who is due the same day as me had her little girl yesterday. They named her Morgan Jo Fry and she weighed in at 6.6lbs. Luther and Annette's daughter, Amanda, was due the day after me also had her little boy yesterday. All of a sudden I went into a little bit of a panic mode knowing that this is really happening and I will be having a baby soon...real soon. I start to get emotional just thinking about it. Last night i was getting into bed and Brett says "So whats our plan?" i wasn't sure what he meant and he said "You know if you go into labor in the middle of the night." Hmmmm...good question:) Good thing my mom is ready and waiting for my phone call. She will head up to Payson as soon as I call her, so the kids can stick with their normal routine of school and activities. Since I'm letting things go naturally I have a feeling I'm going to go past my due date but I guess we will just have to wait to find out.
